The 7 Summits Club guide Lyudmila Korobeshko reports from Chile:
Yesterday, January 14, in very harsh weather conditions, most of the Zorros Rojos y Otros team climbed to the top of Ojos del Salado. Halfway to the summit, we were caught in a snowstorm. But we decided to continue climbing. As a result, the Foxes fought the elements for about 17 hours, including the ascent and descent. During this time, about 30 cm of snow fell on the mountain. We descended in the dark. And we also had to drive down dangerous snow-covered roads. A real Snowstorm in the desert!
Now - for a well-deserved rest by the sea!
